Spinnaker Fleuss Automatic

Description: The Spinnaker Fleuss offers a compelling mix of style, functionality, and value for those who love dive watches, as well as those who simply appreciate a robust, everyday timepiece. Inspired by the maritime legacy of Henry Fleuss, the inventor of the modern lifeboat, the Fleuss is a timepiece that merges rugged, nautical performance with a versatile and stylish design. Whether you’re diving into the deep blue or just need a sturdy watch for daily wear, the Fleuss delivers a lot for its price. Design & Build Quality: The Fleuss features a 42mm stainless steel case that strikes a perfect balance between substantial size and comfortable wear. The brushed finish gives the watch a refined, modern appearance, while the slightly domed shape of the case provides a sleek and ergonomic fit. At 13.6mm in thickness, it is not too bulky but feels substantial on the wrist, and the 49mm lug-to-lug distance ensures it wears well on a variety of wrist sizes. The dial of the Fleuss is clean and well-balanced, available in a range of attractive colors such as blue, green, and black, each with a sunburst effect that changes with the light. Large, easy-to-read Arabic numerals and a date window at 3 o’clock make for excellent legibility. The hands are filled with Super-LumiNova, ensuring they glow brightly in low light or underwater conditions. One of the standout features of this watch is the unidirectional rotating bezel. Its ceramic insert is scratch-resistant, and the bezel moves smoothly with a solid 120-click action, providing precise time tracking while diving. The large, luminous markers on the bezel make it easy to read, even in murky waters. Movement & Performance: Inside the Fleuss is the reliable Seiko NH35 automatic movement—a well-regarded, entry-level movement known for its accuracy and durability. With 24 jewels, it provides a solid 40-42 hours of power reserve, which is more than sufficient for regular use. The NH35 also features hacking and hand-winding capabilities, making it a convenient movement for time-setting and ensuring reliable accuracy. With a water resistance rating of 150 meters (15 ATM), the Spinnaker Fleuss is suitable for recreational diving, swimming, and other water activities. While it doesn’t have the extreme depth rating of some professional dive watches, 150 meters is more than enough for most divers and general water-related activities. The screw-down crown further enhances the water resistance, ensuring the watch remains watertight even during deeper dives or extended time underwater. Comfort & Wearability: The Spinnaker Fleuss is designed for comfort, whether you’re wearing it on a daily basis or for active pursuits. The watch is available with two strap options: a sturdy stainless steel bracelet or a flexible silicone strap. The stainless steel bracelet has a polished edge and a brushed center, adding a premium touch. It features an easy-to-use clasp for a customizable fit. Alternatively, the silicone strap is more casual, perfect for sporty and active use, and provides excellent comfort during extended wear. At 42mm in diameter and with a reasonable thickness of 13.6mm, the Fleuss is a comfortable fit for most wrist sizes, whether you're wearing it at the beach, on a dive, or out and about. It’s not overly heavy, and the case shape ensures it sits securely on the wrist without feeling bulky or uncomfortable. Final Thoughts: The Spinnaker Fleuss is a well-rounded dive watch that offers excellent value for money. It combines a stylish, durable design with a reliable automatic movement, a solid 150-meter water resistance, and features that make it a great choice for both diving and daily wear. Whether you’re a seasoned diver or simply someone who wants a watch that looks good and can handle a bit of adventure, the Fleuss is a smart option that won't break the bank.
